And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Airbus A319 Cockpit View of Two Female Pilots Landing at one of the world's most difficult airports - Paro, Bhutan.
I use Firefox, and I just tried it on Opera, so this should work. Hold the Ctrl key and run the scrollwheel on your mouse forward, and the video should enlarge. You may have to shift it a bit up or down to get it centered, but you can fill your screen. Make sure it's playing at 720p or 1080p, and watch it in full-screen without going to YouTube.
She's Buddhist. It's normal for a Buddhists to pray when passing a monastery. At that point in the video they pass two monasteries on the mountain tops on either side of the plane that would be clearly visible to her. Directly ahead of them in the valley there are another four monasteries.
Other than the co-pilot looking like she's praying and crossing herself, that pilot knows her shit.

DeleteImpressive job. I haven't flown an aircraft in many, many years. But she obviously knew how to navigate through the mountains to this airfield.
ReplyDelete@ azlibertarian - Very interesting. We need to be careful who we trust our lives with.
ReplyDeleteI’m not a bot
ReplyDeleteShe's fine.
ReplyDeletelike threading a needle. if that's a camera above the pilot's head, it's too wobbly to get useful video
